Double-acting flat pneumatic cylinder, 12 mm bore, 1–200 mm stroke, M5 port, proximity switch sensing, anodized aluminum construction.
Flat pneumatic cylinder from Festo, type DZF-12-20-P-A, part number 164000. The datasheet specifies a double-acting flat cylinder with 12 mm piston diameter, M3 piston rod thread, stroke range from 1 mm to 200 mm, and position detection via proximity switch. It is designed for compressed air to ISO 8573-1:2010 [7:4:4], operates from 0.16 MPa to 1 MPa, and uses elastic cushioning rings/plates at both ends. Construction materials include anodised wrought aluminium alloy housing, wrought aluminium cover, NBR and TPE-U(PU) seals, and a high-alloy stainless steel piston rod. The unit is suitable for any mounting position and is intended for compact pneumatic actuation where low profile packaging is required.

Provides short-stroke, double-acting motion for compact pick-and-place mechanisms where low-profile cylinder geometry and proximity sensing are needed.
Solves space constraints while maintaining controlled bidirectional pneumatic motion and end-position feedback.
Drives mechanical stops, lifters, or indexing pins in conveyor and assembly stations that require up to 200 mm stroke and moderate force.
Solves reliable stopping and repositioning of small workpieces in tight machine envelopes.
Suitable for light clamping, locking, or fixture positioning applications where corrosion-resistant aluminum construction and stainless rod are beneficial.
Solves compact clamping with moderate force in environments needing corrosion resistance and clean pneumatic operation.
